1st Week of School!

Ms. Tinsley’s Second Grade Class

WOW! What a great first week of school!!

The students and I have spent a great deal of time getting to know one another and building a strong sense of community in our classroom. Speaking of community I would like to thank you all for helping with the “Me Bags”. They were a real success and a real joy to present!!!







We’ve also spent a great deal of time working on procedures to help our classroom run smoothly. One way we’re helping our classroom run smoothly is by assigning jobs to each student. Everyone filled out a job application for the job they wanted and in that application they explained why they thought that would be a good job for them. They all seem to be really excited about their jobs and are taking them very seriously.

This week
We will continue to work on our classroom procedures and strengthening our community. We will also begin some writing and math activities, so that I can see where each student is and where to begin our instructional time.

Starting Monday students will bring home their take home binder. This binder will go home every day and come back to school every day. It will contain their weekly homework assignment, school newsletter, classroom newsletter, a communication folder where you can place any messages or information for me to see, and their behavior calendar. I ask that you initial or sign on each day of their behavior calendar so that I know you’ve seen it.


I’m excited to see what this week holds! If you have any questions feel free to contact me!
